I set my sights on the old man who was still chatting, so I walked over and smoked a circle.
The old people are very talkative, seeing that I am interested in listening to their gossip, they are also very happy to talk about the things in the village, and I also understand that there are probably several types of people who cannot enter the ancestral grave.
One is people who died violently. The violent death here is not drowning or falling to death, but being killed. As long as the murderer is not found, then they cannot enter the ancestral grave.
One is a child who died in infancy.
One is a person who has made a mistake.
The last type is people who die very strangely.
I can still understand the first three, but what about people who die strangely? I asked the old people, and several of them were hesitant, as if unwilling to speak.
I pestered me for a long time before the old man uttered a few words: "He was killed by a ghost."
To be honest, I am not surprised by this answer, because there are injustice dragon veins and that weird monster in the ancient well in the village, it is normal for some weird things to happen, but I am also surprised, because the village is protected by ancestors, I have seen it , Many ancestors did not go to reincarnation, but sheltered here.
After thinking for a while, I still asked: "Why didn't the little girl's parents be buried in the ancestral grave? Did she make a mistake?"
The old man shook his head and said: "That honest boy, what can he do wrong? He... a little kid, why ask so many questions, go and pour tea for the old man."
I took the tea that I had already drank, but I still had a vague idea in my heart. It seems that the little girl's parents should not be able to enter the ancestral grave because of their strange deaths. Killed by ghosts.
But how did the shroud on the little girl come from? Before I went out, I checked the Internet on my mobile phone. Although I didn’t find much useful information, the shroud should be in a very poor or hasty situation. It is a kind of burial method that is only used by the lower class and does not treat the deceased favorably. In many cases, there is not even a coffin.
This is basically impossible now, no matter how poor people are, they will basically not use such a shroud, but the shroud that can't be wrapped around the body of a little girl must be something from many years ago.
Although the light was not good yesterday, I could still see clearly. Except for the yellow marks in the shroud, it looked clean, and it didn't look like something from a long time ago.
I sent the tea to the old man, and waited for the old man to enjoy it, and then continued to pester the old man about the death of the little girl's parents. My behavior like a child made the old man very helpless, so he had to tell me the matter.
About a year ago, the little girl's parents, Mr. Wang and Mrs. Wang, took an order and rushed to make furniture at home, so they seldom went to the village to chat during that time, and the villagers didn't know that they were dead.
It wasn't until Lao Liu went to Lao Wang's house in a hurry to make a batch of tables because he was going to host a banquet that he found out that something happened in his house.
According to Lao Liu later said: When he came to the courtyard of the old Wang's house, only the little girl was playing in the courtyard alone, wrapped in the white cloth that had not been changed since then, and had no shoes on.
Ask the little girl, the little girl said that his parents were sleeping, and Lao Liu asked the little girl to wake up her parents, but the little girl said that the two of them had been asleep for a long time, and they couldn't wake up no matter how they called.
Lao Liu didn't care about it at the time. He went straight into the house and knocked on the bedroom door, but he didn't knock, but asked for an unpleasant rancid smell. When he opened the door, he found that Lao Wang and his wife were lying side by side on the bed. , I don’t know how long I have been dead, the bed is full of yellow water from the corpse, and there is a small space between the two of them.
The little girl who followed into the house yawned, saying that she was sleepy, and fell asleep lying between two deformed corpses. At that time, Lao Liu was so frightened that she stumbled back to the village and called the police.
When the curious villagers and the police entered the little girl's house, the little girl was still asleep between the two corpses. After waking up, he didn't know what to ask, and the little girl didn't know how long she had slept among the corpses, so the villagers were a little afraid of him at that time.
After the police checked, they found nothing wrong, so the villagers could only arrange for the two to be buried, but they were still going to be buried in the ancestral grave.
But the little girl refused to allow her parents to be buried, saying that her parents were not dead. At first everyone just thought that the little girl was reluctant to part with her parents, but in the end they got different information from the little girl's confusing words.
Said that his parents are still working for others, only at night, and others are in a hurry, so they can't let them go.
Everyone was frightened by the little girl's words, and they didn't bury his parents in the ancestral grave, but buried them in the woods on the mainland of the village according to the usual practice.
From that time on, the little girl changed into a different person. She was very afraid of the villagers, and she ran to guard the grave of her parents alone, saying that someone told him that if she guarded the grave for three years, her parents would come back. Well, the villagers are still very scared, but it has been a year, and the villagers have gradually forgotten about it.
It's just that I hate the person who deceived the little girl and let a little girl of a few years live alone in the wild.
Of course, there are still many places that make people feel strange. When Lao Wang was alive, he said that he had received a big order, so he worked at home every day, but when the villagers went to their house, they did not find that Lao Wang had any work. , there are no raw materials. But tools such as saws are placed in the yard neatly, as if they are in use at all times.
And there was an open space in the yard that was cleaned very cleanly, as if something had been let go, but you know, his house is directly connected to the village by a road, but he didn't see any materials brought in or brought out.
Moreover, the bodies of the old Wang and his wife have not been moved at all, they still have a smile on their faces, and they are even more neatly dressed. The key is that they are still wearing shoes. Just imagine, who would still wear shoes when they go to bed at home.
The little girl was also very strange. I didn’t know where I found the white cloth to wrap her body like this. At that time, there was a kind villager who wanted to change his clothes, and was scratched by the little girl. According to the villager , the white cloth on the little girl's body is very strange, but I can't tell why it is so strange.
After several old people talked in a hurry, I also felt a little turmoil in my heart. This incident is really strange. I said that I met a ghost. And just like what the old man said, Lao Wang said that he had taken on a big job before he was alive, but where is the big job
What made me even more surprised was where did the shroud on the little girl's body come from? At first I thought he picked it up from the tomb in the woods, but according to the old man, the little girl found out that his parents had passed away. It has already been wrapped in a shroud, so it can't be that Pharaoh is free to play with the shroud at home.
Besides, only those that have actually wrapped the corpse are called shrouds.
